2022 & 2023 QB Desktop subscription upgrade

Client had Desktop QB 2021 and they subscribed to the new subscription series in 2022 and 2023, however, their QB Desktop program still shows QB 2021.  Why does it not show 2023 if that is what they subscribed to and they upgraded the program to?  Do they need to download the new QB 2024 (when the time comes) separately from their current QB program?

Don't confuse Update and Upgrade. You can only find the Update button in your QB Desktop program to install the latest patch (i.e. Release version). But you have to install each year version separately (i.e. 2022 or 2023). You can run QB Desktop 2021 and other versions simultaneously if needed. Login to your CAMPS to check your licensing codes.

Hello there, @Caroljallencpa. I'll be glad to share some insights about the subscription upgrade of your client's QuickBooks Desktop. That way, you'll get some cool features, bug fixes, and updated layouts, which will make your QBDT experience even smoother.

 

The information shared by 4Gal is correct about updating and upgrading QuickBooks Desktop. In your client case, you'll want to use the Customer Account Management Portal (CAMP) to confirm the info and manage your account. That way, we can check if the license is already for QuickBooks Desktop 2023. I’m glad to show you how:

 

  1. Visit camps.intuit.com.
  2. Sign in with your Intuit Account info.
  3. If you see multiple products to choose from, select QuickBooks Desktop.
  4. Then, if it's already QuickBooks Desktop 2023 copy the license no. and use it in downloading the file.
  5. You may also press the F2 key.
  6. Look for your product name, product number, and license number in the Product Information window.
  7. Look for your release at the end of the product name.

 

Check out these references for more details on finding your license info. It contains several articles that help organize your company. : 

 

 

Then, QuickBooks downloads, installs, and activates the new version for you. Your company file(s) will automatically update as well. Also, make sure to back up your company file before making any changes to your QuickBooks installation. To learn how to upgrade to a newer version of QuickBooks Desktop from within the program, see this article: Upgrade QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier, or Enterprise.

 

Additionally, I've got you this article to learn more about what QBDT 2023 has to offer and to ensure your computer meets the requirements of our latest release:

You have QB Desktop 2020 UK version, correct?

You need to call Intuit Support in UK and ask them the activation code. If they refuse, you may consider using the trial version of QB Desktop 2020 or 2021 as a workaround.

Hello Michael! I have some useful insights to share that can help you troubleshoot the error you're experiencing during QuickBooks Desktop installation and get you up and running in no time.

 

Typically, when installing QuickBooks Desktop to a new computer, it is not necessary to deactivate the old program in the server. To find the license number and product code, simply press the F2 key inside QuickBooks on the old server.

 

Furthermore, if you bought QuickBooks Desktop from our website, you can check your purchase confirmation email for your license number and product code. However, if you can't find them, you can sign in to your Customer Account Management Portal to get them. Here's how to sign in:

 

  1. Go to camps.intuit.com.
  2. Sign in with your Intuit Account info. This could be different from what you use to sign in to your company file.
  3. If you see multiple products to choose from, select QuickBooks Desktop (with the specific year version) to go to CAMPs.

 

Also, as your other computer with the original QuickBooks Desktop program is faulty, I suggest creating a backup ahead of time to avoid data loss. After saving the backup file to the flash drive, verify the integrity and completeness of the backed-up data. Ideally, you'll need to move it to your local hard drive first.

 

Moreover, restoring a company saved on the same computer should not be a problem. You can follow the complete details of instructions in this article: Restore your file.

 

Additionally, you might find it helpful to check out these articles to get additional insights and information about the proper installation workflow:
